Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.

But I relly prefer this one from baseball's Branch Rickey:,P>"Luck is the residue of design."

Here are a few more good ones.

I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it. -- Thomas Jefferson (LOL)

Good luck is often with the man who doesn't include it in his plans. -- unknown

We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like? -- Jean Cocteau

Luck is tenacity of purpose.-- Elbert Hubbard
